Dungarees

Taking a leaf out of Farmama's book and inventing some dungarees (or coveralls if you like!) for LMB using baby blue cord and some remnants of fat quarters (Amy Butler I think).
I didn't use a pattern, but they've turned out pretty well, very seventies, high rise trousers and then just a basic bib, that I have since adapted slightly as i felt the full on square front wasn't right. I've now taken it at an angle and I'm happy.
I just have to cover three buttons today with the fabric and then it'll be ready for her to wear.

I love the high back of the pants - they feel incredibly Twiggy!!

Oh, and this is where Meg hangs out whilst I'm sewing. She seems to be lulled to sleep by the sound of the machine. Cuddling her new squeaky duck toy too - cute!
